But you deep types tend to contribute much to society.

Yes, I think I am deep. Ozmosses. You may be the only person on earth who wants to know what a deep thinker thinks-lol. Or sees it as positive.

Curiosity was the parent: I am only deep because for 40 years I have complusively read every deep thinker I could find out of curiosity. I read many books where I did not understand a thing they were saying.

I wanted to teach philosophy at a major university.

But all my reading intertestingly mainly led me to play very good poker and I am a good trader-lol. I am kind of an intellectual street guy-lol.

I go in to play the other street guys, but what I have in my back pocket, that they do not have is a solid understanding of statistics. It gives me big edge.

It is like us having a fight, but I have a sword in statistics.
